Granted, he was a poker player then, but he didn't blog it like he does now. Anyhow, someone have a drink for me whilst enjoying your poker fun, please. I can't drink or eat anything at the moment. Shattered a tooth last night and am suffering mightly. Although, come to think of it, enough alcohol could make me forget the pain. Something I must consider carefully. After all, it's only going on 5:30am here. I’ve been an Otis fan since my first year of blogging, back before he got all up in that poker stuff.

I would rather sit around and drink and BS than gamble. But that's just me, you guys go for it and enjoy the hell out of yourselves. I get sometimes where I want a different drink - usually a round of a few days or weeks on odd varieties of beer does it. Bass, Dos Equis, Sam Adams (haven't tried them all, some I don't like, but Summer Ale is fine), even some of the yuppie stuff like Fat Tar, etc. Sometimes I go off into wines, just for dinner, of course, couple of bottles of riesling with whatever. But I always come back to Budweiser. My one true love. I wish I could share your enjoyment of poker - I’ve played some, not well, but even winning did not make me want to keep going back for more.

Not that I'd *admit* to drinking it, though.
